Dale Mercer

League and fan culture columnist

13+ years experience

Dale covered minor-league and college teams for a regional paper for ten years and has sat in more cold press boxes than he cares to count. He writes about leagues, rivalries and the traditions fans keep alive, and he is wary of any take that ignores the people in the cheap seats.
